Chapter 88 Arriving At Star City
[As you traveled to the direction where Star City is located, your path was blocked by a fire ape at Level 48 Star Ancestor. Needless to say, your thought alone could kill it easily, leaving the corpse of that fire ape on the road.]
[You didn't even bother to dissect and loot the body of that fire ape since its parts weren't of any use to you. As for selling it, you were the heir of the Hong Clan and money was one of the many things that you didn't lack.]
[You traveled for an hour and you encountered a group of bandits that blocked the road. They set up a barricade in the road and they would extort any individuals or merchants that passed through this path.]
[Upon observation, the power levels of those bandits ranged from Level 51-59. All of them were Star Kings and you even wondered why they became bandits when they were that powerful. But after remembering that this road led to Star City and countless caravans of wealthy merchants would pass by here, you were no longer surprised.]
["Boss! This kid is rich. He looks like those young masters! He must have a lot of star coins in his storage ring!" A Level 53 Star King bandit pointed his dagger towards you while licking the blade of his dagger.]
["Forget about his storage ring! Just look at his appearance! He is so handsome and will undoubtedly fetch a huge price in the slave auction. Those rich ugly fat and old women will? pay good money just to sleep with him." A Level 59 Star King bandit who seemed to be the boss reprimanded his subordinate for being narrow-minded.]
[The rest of the bandits agreed with their boss' statement but they also knew that their colleague was right. In other words, they all decided to not only steal your storage ring, but they even planned to abduct you and sell you to the slave auction.]
[You were infuriated by their words! After all, slavery and the slave auction were words that you abhor to hear especially when your younger sister suffered from those two. If not for your intervention, Alice would have suffered much worse than being a slave as she would have become a test subject for a deadly virus.]
[When those bandits mentioned those two taboo words, they managed to anger you. Although you were angry, that didn't mean you lost your rationality. However, that's what made it more terrifying!]
[Looking at those group of bandits which were no different from walking corpses in your eyes, you used your absolute mind to make them suffer from continuous mental agony!]
[The screams of those bandits reverberated in the forest as they clutched their heads in pain. It was as if they experienced their brains being stabbed by thousands of needles and then poured over by hot molten lava.]
[Not only was the pain in their mind not receding as time passed by, it was even becoming more excruciating! Due to that, none of the bandits managed to keep their sanity. Their lifeless bodies lay down on the road. Their dilated eyes gazed at the sky absentmindedly.]
[It was no doubt that all of those bandits were no different from being dead. Or to be precise, their mind was dead and they could no longer think. Due to that, they would starve to death and rot away in this forest.]
[Of course, if they are unlucky enough, their lifeless bodies might even be eaten by wandering beasts in the forest. The beasts in this world could cultivate so it was as strong as the monsters in the transcendent world.]
[Aside from the lack of star cultivators who were as strong as Transcendent Saints, the martial arts fantasy world was as strong as the transcendent world. In fact, if not for the lack of high-end power in the martial arts fantasy world, the martial arts fantasy world would have been stronger than the transcendent world.]
[After all, Transcendent Kings and Transcendent Emperors in the transcendent world were quite valuable as not many of them existed. However, there were more Honored Stars and Revered Constellations in this world than the Transcendent Kings and Transcendent Emperors in the transcendent world.]
[As long as the Transcendent Saints in the transcendent world were out of the picture, the martial arts fantasy world could easily defeat the transcendent world.]
[You were currently at Level 98 Revered Constellation and that was equivalent to a Transcendent Emperor Peak Stage in the transcendent world. You were only a step closer to becoming a Transcendent Saint and vengeance was almost within your sight!]
[You know that even if Sophia Frost's growth speed was fast, it still wouldn't matter much since she was still at 9th-level transcendent. Even if she did become a Transcendent King, that still wouldn't pose a threat to you.]
[The only problem left was her master who was a Transcendent Saint but even the power of a Transcendent Saint was almost within your grasp.]
[You felt that reaching the level above Level 99 Revered Constellation will allow you to become a Transcendent Saint! As long as you reach the power of a Transcendent Saint, you will be unstoppable in the Transcendent World!]
["I should take this one step at a time. I still need to consolidate my foundation so that my foundation won't be unstable. Although I can break through to Level 99 Revered Constellation if I wanted to, that would still cause my foundation to be unstable." You muttered as you walked down the road, leaving the lifeless bodies of those bandits littered on the road.]
[You know the importance of keeping your foundation stable. After all, your current foundation was too stable to the point that your Level 98 Revered Constellation star cultivation base was comparable to those at Level 99 Revered Constellation. It was the reason why your father wasn't confident that he could defeat you in not only swordsmanship and martial arts but even in astral pressure!]
[Eventually, after you were traveling for a few hours, you finally arrived at your destination, the Star City!]
